PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

WELCOME BACK

I would like to welcome everyone back for Term 2. I hope all families had a safe and happy Easter period. This term will be 11 weeks in duration and will conclude on Friday 26 June 2015.

STAFFING NEWS

It is with sadness that l announce the resignation of Jill Clark from Patto after 11 years of wonderful service and support to senior school teachers, students and school programs. Jill expressed that she wanted to leave quietly and without fuss. We shall miss Jill’s contribution to Patto, and wish her every happiness in life’s future journey.

UP: PRINCIPAL PREPARATION PROGRAM

PLPS has been chosen by the Department of Education to host Karen Walker, Assistant Principal of Mt Martha PS, for a 4 week period as part of the UP program [Principal Preparation Program].

The UP program prepares aspiring Principals to manage the complexity, expectations and increasing accountabilities of the principal role. It also promotes aspiring principals to reflect on their practice, pursue their vision, gain perspective and seek feedback about their performance in preparation for embarking on principalship.

The school has previously hosted two previous Assistant Principals, Kaitlyn Haitus and Janet Evison. Kaitlyn is currently Principal of Balwyn North PS and Janet is Principal of Heany Park PS.

HOUSE NEWS – PATTO’s GOT TALENT Our House competition for Term 2 is ‘Patto’s Got Talent’. Individuals and groups that have talent in Performing Arts are encouraged to register their interest. If your child can dance, sing, play an instrument or do all 3, we are interested in their involvement in ‘Patto’s Got Talent’.

Expressions of Interest forms must be completed by Monday 27 April and placed into House boxes located outside Ms Lamaro’s room [Room 9].

SUPERVISION OF STUDENTS

Just a reminder to all parents that teachers are officially on yard duty before school from 8.45am – 9.00am and after school from 3.30pm – 3.45pm. A bell is sounded at 3.45pm to ensure that students that have not been collected by parents report to the office.

For new parents to our school, the following procedures have been implemented in relation to student safety and children arriving at school well before 8.30am.

Contact will be made with parents informing them that staff are not officially on yard duty until 8.45am.

Parents will be asked if they can find other alternatives for morning supervision. If there are no other supervision alternatives, parents will be provided with an enrolment form for Before School Care.

ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

SUNSMART: SUN PROTECTION POLICY

Just a reminder that the wearing of school hats in the playground for Term 2 is required up until Thursday, 30th April.

Following this teachers will encourage students to wear their hats on days where UV levels are expected to reach 3 or above up until the 1st September when the compulsory wearing of hats recommences.

CONGRATULATIONS

Kiran C (5B) went to Sydney over the school holidays and competed in two major Karate tournaments. The first tournament was the 2015 Australian University and School Championship where Kiran represented Patterson Lakes Primary and did an amazing job bringing home a bronze medal. The second tournament was the Australian Open Championships where he came up against other competitors from around Australia in his division, again he came home with another bronze medal.

Kiran has been attending Karate since he was 4yrs old and is extremely dedicated and trains very hard, sometimes 5 nights a week and holds his brown belt. It is his hoped that he can make it into the Victorian Karate Team this year. Well done Kiran!

Ethan L (6A) who attends Paul Sadler Swimland received a Diploma last term for swimming excellence. To gain this award Ethan had to display a mastery of the four competitive strokes, the ability to swim 50m freestyle in under 45 seconds, the ability to swim at least 200m in an unprotected open water environment and the ability to swim 3 kilometres non-stop. Well done Ethan!

ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

HOLIDAY BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS WORKS cont.

Annual cleaning of the gutters of all our roofing and the

drainage pits.

The installation of a concrete base for our new junior

play area beside the Bike Shed – in the next few weeks some basketball towers, fencing and a new sand pit will be installed in this area. This project has been possible through recent fundraising activities.

IT’S NOT OK TO BE AWAY OR LATE!

Last year Patterson Lakes Primary School averaged 12.4 days of absences per student which was a pleasing result as it was lower than the school average for the previous four years. This was also 0.4 days lower than our 2013 school average and met our goal of being below 12.5 days per student. The number of ‘Late Arrivals’ per student decreased by 0.2 days per student from 2.7 days in 2013 to 2.5 days in 2014.

This was the lowest result over the past 11 years but we still need to make a huge effort to ensure that students arrive at school on time in 2015 to further reduce lateness. Our goal for 2014 was to reduce our late arrivals to 2.5 days per student which we were able to achieve – Well done!

Some data for Term 1 of the 2015 school year is as follows:

1237 – This is the total number of ‘days absent’ that students have taken during Term 1 this year. On average this is lower than for Term 1, 2014. If our students are lucky to stay healthy for the remainder of the year and attend school when they are well, then we could further improve our attendance rate and keep our absences below last year’s result. A target of 12.3 days is our goal.

352 – This is the total number of ‘Late Arrivals’ for Term 1. This is an average of 0.47 days per student which is 0.01 higher than at the same time last year. 14 students have been late 5 or more days which is more than at this time last year. (10 in 2014). When students are late to school they disrupt the learning of others so we need to ensure that they are always on time. Being at school no later than 8:50a.m is a great time to aim for. Our goal for 2014 is to reduce our average for the year to 2.3 days per student.

352 – This is the number of unexplained absences for Term 1. This makes up 28.5% of absences and is 0.6% higher than this time last year. These are absences without parent/guardian notes or calls to the Office as to the reason why stu-dents were not at school. Please remember that when your child is absent from school a note or call to the Office is need-ed to explain the absence as this is a Department of Educa-tion requirement. Let’s make a better effort to improve this for the rest of the year and beyond.

The P.L.P.S student ‘Absences’ and ‘Late Arrivals’ ladders for our 29 classes for Term 1 of the learning season in 2015 looks like this. (The average number of absences and late arrivals per student for each class are shown in the right hand col-umns).

ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

Congratulations 6A who are our leaders in attending school for the first term of 2015. Keep up your excellent attendances 6A.

Congratulations to Prep D who are our leaders in being on time to commence school for Term 1. Keep making sure you are ready for school before 9 o’clock Prep D. Well done!

In Term 1 the boys had a better attendance record and were better at being on time for school than girls.

Research shows that regular attendance at school does assist student learning.

HEAD LICE FIRST AID NEWS PFA SECOND HAND SALE

SECOND HAND UNIFORM SALE

Parents and Friends Association are holding a second hand

uniform sale on Friday the 24th of April from 3pm - 4pm

outside the Year 6 Rooms.

Uniforms will be going out for just $5.00 and all will be in

good to very good condition.

Be warned, due to a successful response to last years sale it

would be wise to get there quick.

See you there!

Alopecia

We have a student here at Patterson

Lakes Primary School who suffers from a

condition called Alopecia.

Alopecia is one of the most common autoimmune skin

diseases resulting in the loss of hair on the scalp and

elsewhere on the body. The onset is typically rapid, initially

starting with one or more small, round patches, and can

progress to the point where all the hair is lost on the scalp

(alopecia totalis) or even on the whole body (alopecia

universalis). A simple explanation is that Alopecia means

hair loss.

As you can appreciate children in primary school often

become very aware of not just their own appearance but the

appearance of others. We understand that it’s a natural

response for someone to see a person with Alopecia and

assume they are really sick or have cancer, due to the hair

loss.

Please feel free to openly discuss with your children at

home what Alopecia is and please reassure them and

yourselves, that aside from the obvious hair loss, this

student is perfectly happy and healthy.

For more information regarding Alopecia, please refer to the

following webpage http://www.aaaf.org.au/

As mentioned in the last newsletter from Term 1, we have had increasing reports of children with Head Lice.

PLPS conduct head lice checks at the school and informs families of reported cases of head lice in the classroom. To help offer our school support in this matter, the friendly staff at Patterson Lakes Pharmacy have kindly offered their services as well. Sometimes parents are unsure of what they are looking for, or they may suspect they themselves might have head lice. Patterson Lakes Pharmacy are offering help with free head lice checks for children and parents and also to offer advice and assistance.

They can be found at Shop 7, Lakeview Shopping, Patterson Lakes.

Head Lice inspections are available at the City of Kingston Cheltenham Office (1230 Nepean Highway) weekdays between 8.30-9.30am and 4.30-5.30pm. Inspections at other Customer Service Centres may be arranged by appointment only.

For further information, call Environmental Health on 9581 4573.

As we progressed through Term 1, we received a growing number of reports from parents with children who have head lice. Thank you to those families who have signed and returned the Head Lice Inspection Consent Form.

Class screening and spot checks of suspected head lice cases will commence NEXT WEEK.

Please note that PLPS has in place a Head Lice Policy Agreement that stipulates all children found to have head lice (even 1 or 2 live lice) must be collected from school and cannot resume school until treatment has taken place. We ask all families to please check your children’s hair each week and treat if necessary.

Here are the facts: -

Head lice infestations are a common occurrence, particularly in primary schools.

it is estimated about 23% of primary students have head lice at any one time

anyone can catch head lice regardless of their age, sex, or how clean their hair is

head lice move from one person's head to another via hair

head lice do not survive long when they are off a human head

head lice do not live on furniture, hats, bedding or carpet

head lice have built up some resistance to head lice treatments

Treatment: -

Daily combing of white hair conditioner using a fine tooth comb is effective in getting rid of head lice and eggs.

Tips for parents in reducing the spread of head lice:-

As infestations are particularly common in primary schools, it is best to choose a treatment that can be used over time. There is no single solution to eradication, only persistence.

regularly check your children's hair

teach older children to check their own hair

tie back or braid long hair

keep a fine tooth head lice comb in the bathroom and encourage all family members to use it when they wash their hair
